Twelve Days of Christmas Day Two


Ginger Bread Men Bookmark
Today's project is quick and easy. Christmas is a great time for giving books and why not include a handmade bookmark!  Not giving a book, then maybe you know someone who reads a lot! Either way it is a quick and easy gift.

Here is my bookmark; let's get started!  I just love these little guys!!



Supplies Needed for this project:

Card Stock                             Gum Ball Green and Whisper White
Stampin Up Ink                       Early Espresso
Stamp Sets                              Scentsational Season and Petite Pairs
Framelits                                Holiday Collection
Punch                                     Modern Label
Designer Series Paper           Be a good Cheer
Ribbon                                   Scallop Dots  (Cherry Cobbler)
Bling                                      Dazzling Diamonds
Tools                                      Big Shot

Directions:

  1. For the base of your bookmark cut a piece of card stock 5 1/2 x 2 1/4, for the next layer(designer series paper) cut a piece 4 3/4 x 2 inches. 
  2. Stamp the Ginger Bread Men with Early Espresso on Whisper White card stock.
  3. Then using your Big Shot and the Ginger Bread Men from Holiday Collection framelits match the framelit to the stamped Ginger Bread Man and run through the Big Shot.
  4. Take another piece of Whisper White card stock and stamp Merry Christmas onto it and then punch out your message using the Moder Label punch.
  5. Cut a piece of ribbon about 8 1/2 inches long.
  6. Now assemble your pieces and start adhering them to your base card. First the ribbon, designer series paper, Ginger Bread Men and then tag.  I tilted my Ginger Bread Men and attached them and the tag with dimensionals.
  7. For some Bling I added Dazzling Diamonds!

I hope you enjoyed your stop today and let me know what you think. I enjoy reading each comment.
